Introduction

I have created this page as a place for you to find information that might help you in your journeys on the Internet. I will post videos, links, and other items that I think will be of use to you here.


Logging In


To log in to your Wikispaces account, you will first need your student account name and password. This can be found on the sheet of paper your child received at the beginning of the year. It was placed in a protective plastic sleeve and placed in the back of your child's binder.

When you reach our wiki's home page, you will see the banner at the top look like this:

Click "sign in" to get to the login screen. The page will then look something like this:

The username and password are the ones supplied on the sheet of paper that is contained in the plastic sleeve. The form for the usernames is s###gethls34, where the ### is a unique 3-digit number for your login information. The password is a random 10-character combination of letters and numbers.

After you login, your header should look like this:

Click on Edit on any page to make changes.

Searching



This video gives you the basics of how to use a search engine to find what you are looking for.

Inserting Links


Inserting links in your Wikispaces pages is easy. Here is what you need to do.

First, log in.

After you get to the page that you want to edit, click on the edit tab. You should now see an editor bar like this:

To add a link, first highlight the text, then click on the chain that is put together:

That will bring you to this screen:

If you are linking to a web page that is not contained in this wiki, you need to click 'External Link'.

The screen will then look like this:

Type/paste the web address into the box that says address, click Add Link, and you are all set!
